+= Wireshark {wireshark-version} Release Notes
+// Asciidoctor Syntax Quick Reference:
+// https://asciidoctor.org/docs/asciidoc-syntax-quick-reference/
+
+This is an experimental release intended to test new features for Wireshark 4.4.
+
+== What is Wireshark?
+
+Wireshark is the world’s most popular network protocol analyzer.
+It is used for troubleshooting, analysis, development and education.
+
+== What’s New
+
+// Add a summary of **major** changes here.
+// Add other changes to "New and Updated Features" below.
+
+Improved display filter support for value strings (optional string
+representations for numeric fields).
+
+//=== Bug Fixes
+
+//The following bugs have been fixed:
+//* wsbuglink:5000[]
+//* wsbuglink:6000[Wireshark bug]
+//* cveidlink:2014-2486[]
+//* Wireshark grabs your ID at 3 am, goes to Waffle House, and insults people.
+
+=== New and Updated Features
+
+The following features are new (or have been significantly updated) since version 4.2.0:
+
+//* The Windows installers now ship with Qt 6.5.2.
+// They previously shipped with Qt 6.2.3.
+
+* Display filter syntax-related enhancements:
+
+ ** Better handling of comparisons with value strings. Now the display filter engine can

+ string, including but not limited to range-type value strings.
+
+ ** Fields with value strings now support regular expression matching.
